All hardware needed to mount the centerstand included. Typically installs using basic hand tools. No welding, cutting, or drilling of existing frame or body parts required. Tough black powdercoated finish with some gray fittings or hardware as applicable. A double-retention spring is included as a safety feature to prevent the centerstand from contacting pavement if one of the two springs should fail during a ride. Designed to work with OEM components -- we cannot assure fit with aftermarket exhausts or other accessories. Total weight about 8 lbs.

Note: outer retention spring has 17 coils and is approximately 60mm long (excluding hooks).

Special Note: We do not recommend installing centerstands on bikes with a lowered rear suspension because use on a lowered bike may result in:

Ground clearance & cornering clearance problems, and

Difficulty in lifting the lowered bike onto the centerstand.

Twisted Throttle Tech Tips: Center Stand Installation Explained

Husqvarna should have installed this robust center stand as OEM stock equipment. It was simple to install with metric hand tools. Easy operation. Bike takes up less garage space now & will make rear tire replacement and chain lubrication a breeze! (Posted on 1/13/2016)

Easy installation, solid made. I decided to get the center stand for easy tires change. The only concern I have, the springs could be stronger. For rough off road riding you might want to secure them with bungee cord. Otherwise, happy with the purchase. (Posted on 11/5/2014)
